1. Move the booster vehicle so that its battery is as close as possible to your
vehicle's battery.
2. Make sure that the power such as for the headlights and air conditioner is turned
o.
3. Remove the battery cover.
4. Turn o the booster vehicle's engine and connect the jumper leads in the
following order.
Make sure that the jumper leads are securely connected so that they do not
disconnect due to engine vibrations.
